putting americans in touch with their national parks

The National Park Foundation, chartered by Congress, strengthens the enduring connection between the American people and their National Parks by raising private funds, making strategic grants, creating innovative partnerships and increasing public awareness.

In Yosemite’s 4,000-foot granite monolith known as Half Dome. On a placid wheat field at Gettysburg that now only whispers of a terrible crucible withstood. In a Dayton bicycle shop where Yankee ingenuity staged an end-run around physics to perfect heavier-than-air flight. A unifying national identity exists in our National Parks.

These flagship companies, through donations of dollars, goods and services, have committed nearly $90 million over three years to parlay their resources and strengths for the betterment of the Parks and America.

To date, well over half of the 385 National Parks have benefited directly from the program, and more than 200 million people have made a new connection to our National Parks. Now as never before, new generations and new populations will discover, enjoy, take pride in, and be renewed by our National Parks.

Nearly 400 sites across the country are there to renew us and our faith in America. The National Park Foundation is there to bring these places to all Americans and to deepen our connection to them. Thousands of Americans who already know and love our Parks share the National Park Foundation mission of spreading the magic and impact of these special places. Philanthropic and Corporate America are solidly behind the effort as well. In particular, five outstanding corporate citizens have teamed with the National Park Foundation to mount a sophisticated, multidimensional program of outreach to America. The Proud Partner of America’s National Parks program is anchored by American Airlines, Discovery Channel, Ford Motor Company, Kodak and TIME magazine.

message from the chairman Our National Park System truly is one of America’s best ideas. Dating back to Teddy Roosevelt, conservation of our natural resources has been a partnership between the American people and their government. Today, nowhere is this unique partnership stronger than with the National Park Service, the National Park Foundation and the American people.

The nation’s National Parks are our citizens’ collective inheritances, and alongside our Constitution one of our greatest achievements. They are also our common responsibility—not that of the federal government alone, but of private citizens, corporations and nonprofits, working together to help ensure a solid legacy for generations to come. The following pages offer a snapshot of how we are engaging all Americans in that goal through the National Park Foundation.

It is through partnerships that we are able to make our National Parks the envy of the world. The 385 units of the National Park System serve as windows to our history that educate, inspire and provide enjoyment for this generation and generations yet unborn.

Gale A. Norton Secretary, US Department of the Interior Chairman, National Park Foundation

We could not get the job done without you. By working together, we continue to ensure the future health and well-being of America’s monuments and special places. Together, we ensure that generations of Americans will have the opportunity to cherish and enjoy the world’s greatest system of breathtaking landscapes set aside for people and wildlife.

message from the vice chairman From the outset, the Bush Administration has made clear its determination to address the multi-billion dollar “maintenance backlog” facing our National Parks. The cost of putting all 385 Park units in good physical condition is high, but probably no higher than the recently approved Congressional appropriation to restore a single famous Park, Florida’s Everglades National Park.

The physical condition of our National Parks is clearly the responsibility of the federal government, and it is heartening to know that the current Administration is committed to putting America’s Best Idea back in mint condition.

But what, then, is the responsibility of the private sector to help the National Parks, and what role should the National Park Foundation be playing? First of all, private philanthropy and private volunteers have had an important function in creating and then sustaining National Parks from

the very beginning. Private donors have contributed much of the land that now constitutes our National Parks (I am proud to have a grandfather and an uncle, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Laurance Rockefeller, who were among the most generous). And still today, thousands of volunteers are active in National Parks as guides, field workers and more.

The National Park Foundation, the official nonprofit partner of America’s National Parks, is committed to strengthening “the enduring connection between the American people and their National Parks”—not to rebuilding the roads or the ranger cabins, but to improving the quality of experience each American can have in relation to the Parks.

The National Park Foundation will continue to make its case to the American public that the millions of individuals who benefit each year from Park visits can help ensure that their experience will continue to be available to their grandchildren—by giving generously to the National Park Foundation and strengthening the enduring connection between the American people and their National Parks.

For individuals who want to support this “enduring connection,” there are many opportunities. The National Park Foundation raises funds from all private sources: individuals, foundations and corporations. The Foundation solicits and accepts annual contributions, both restricted and unrestricted; planned gifts and gifts of real property.

In my mind, the National Parks represent the best long-term bet on America. After all, while “the Rockies may crumble,” they’re not likely to do so for several million years! With this in mind, I have named the National Park Foundation as a charitable recipient in my will. I hope thousands of other people will do the same.

As the National Park Foundation embarks on its 35th year of giving back to America’s National Parks, I invite you to experience the majesty of the Parks, and join us in supporting them.

David Rockefeller, Jr. Director, Rockefeller & Co., Inc. Vice Chairman, National Park Foundation

A quality Park experience can take the form of a personal visit, a volunteer experience, on- site education or distance learning. The Foundation seeks through its grants program to address all four areas of connection.

message from the secretary The meaning of America’s National Parks is clear to those who experience them. They fascinate, astound, invigorate; they reveal themselves differently to each of us. Each person, at each place—whether it is the battleground of Antietam or the cloud-tickling Grand Tetons—engenders their own meaning. National Parks embody the American spirit and stir something inside us to seek it.

Motivated by optimism and love for their National Parks, more than 100,000 people volunteer every year. With the National Park Foundation, we are creating additional opportunities for unique experiences that enrich the Parks and the volunteers.

Caring for National Parks is about relationships, and I am proud of the National Park Foundation and National Park Service partnership. The National Park Foundation supports the work of the National Park Service and produces dramatic benefits to the National Parks and people who care about them. Our relationship inspires others to experience these places, get involved and join us as partners – this is the spirit of America’s National Parks.

The National Park Service is dedicated to caring for these special places and inviting others to embrace National Park ideals. Together, the National Park Foundation and National Park Service are creating imaginative ways for people to learn about and experience these places. The National Park Foundation is working with companies whose expertise and financial commitment are reaching out to people around the world, and down the street.

Fran P. Mainella Director, National Park Service Secretary, National Park Foundation

The National Park Foundation’s local funds benefit specific parks and provide ways for neighbors to help their favorite National Parks. These seven funds raised more than $3.6 million this year to support important Park programs and help us maintain them in the condition their grandeur demands.

The first time curiosity triumphs over fear and you touch a horseshoe crab.

The first time you grasp the toll of segregation and well with anger.

The first time you learn to recognize a blackpoll warbler and spot one in flight.

American’s nearly 400 National Parks are places of unlimited discovery— discovery that delights, surprises, sometimes even shocks—but never fails to form a lasting impression. The National Park Foundation works to connect Americans to the wonder of discovery.

■

The first step of discovery is the awakening of curiosity. The National Park Foundation has embarked on a major campaign to educate Americans about National Parks, and to peak their curiosity, inviting them to have their own discoveries or re-connect with discoveries of long ago.

Using television, magazines, e-mail, and even in-flight movies we’ve extended the National Park invitation to millions of Americans.

once someone arrives at the park, we’re helping them to make their own discoveries.

Often the first time a visitor learns about a Park is during the orientation at the Visitor Center, so we’re helping to produce brand-new Visitor Center films that bring the magic of the Park to life. Alaska’s National Parks: Treasures of the Great Lands, a spectacular new Visitor Center film, is now being shown at all 16 National Parks in Alaska. The film, produced and donated by the Discovery Channel, serves as a critical introduction to these remote, rugged and immense lands. More than 20 National Parks that tell the story of dinosaurs and their impact on our world will soon have a new film to illustrate this story; and visitors to Mount Rushmore are already enjoying a stunning, state-of-the-art presentation acquainting them with the Park.

In 12 National Parks from Biscayne in Florida to Lassen Volcanic in California, we’re helping visitors experience their Parks in new ways through National Park Discovery Centers. Visitors—children, families, school groups in particular—are encouraged to feel and listen, to question and evaluate, to fully understand the natural and cultural process at work in the Parks. The Discovery Centers were made possible by a generous gift from The Coca-Cola Foundation to the National Park Foundation.

The material, known as Durawood, is versatile and lasts longer than real lumber. Over eight years, the program has provided millions of dollars of materials to Parks across the country.

an adventurer’s pass to discovery One of the best ways to make National Parks part of your everyday life is by purchasing a National Parks Pass. The National Park Foundation, working with the National Park Service and the U.S. Congress, conceived the program, designed the Pass and packaging, and markets the Pass to individuals and families from coast to coast.

We also encourage amateur photographers to turn their fun into something special, through the National Parks Pass Experience Your America Photo Contest, sponsored by the National Park Service and the National Park Foundation with Kodak, a Proud Partner of America’s National Parks.

Each year a winning image is selected (over 8000 entries were submitted in the most recent contest!) and becomes the image on the next years’ National Parks Pass.

National Parks Pass holders get a free monthly email from the National Park Foundation with information, special events, and great deals on Park experiences, so that they can plan their own recreation in the National Parks, in addition to a quarterly newsletter called Go Parks that offers glimpses into the National Park Foundation’s on-the-ground work in Parks across the country.

taking time to remember When Secretary of the Interior Gale Norton and National Park Service Director Fran Mainella declared Veterans Day 2001 a day a of “unity, hope and healing” and, to encourage Americans to visit Parks, waived all entrance fees for that weekend, the National Park Foundation swiftly mobilized to let America know about this opportunity to come together, display our pride, and renew our spirits. The National Park Foundation secured donated advertising space on television, magazines and newspapers to spread the word. All told, we reached more than 70 million Americans with this positive message at a difficult time in the nation’s history.

insights forging america’s recovery and remembrance

moving the parks forward

September 11th, 2001 struck deeply at the heart of Americans—those living in Washington and New York, to be sure, but in every corner of the country as well. As Americans struggled to come to terms with terror, the National Parks provided haven, at Federal Hall National Memorial, literally—when 250 people sought refuge there from the collapsing World Trade Center—and symbolically, too; our heroic and patriotic Monuments resonated with Americans as never before, and our serene, beautiful open spaces placidly retained their power to soothe.

This past summer marked the return of the fleet of 33 historic Red Buses to Glacier National Park. Restored on the outside to their original splendor, and renewed on the inside with new, safer chassis and engines that run on clean propane fuel, the buses are 93 percent cleaner than originally, and 100 percent the same exhilarating experience that has greeted 70 years of visitors to Glacier National Park. The National Park Foundation has also launched projects in dozens of other National Parks to help address transportation issues, so that the Parks will remain accessible to all, in a way that doesn’t impair the environment. All of this innovative work is made possible through an innovative partnership with Ford Motor Company, a Proud Partner of America’s National Parks.

The National Park Foundation made a grant to the Recovery and Remembrance Fund to capture the pain and the healing that Parks evoke after 9/11. The result is an online exhibit, 9/11/01 The Meaning of National Parks in a Time of Crisis, accessible at www.nps.gov/remembrance. A work in progress, the site invites visitors to read the reflections of others and to contribute a remembrance of their own.

With the 1998 National Park Omnibus Act, Congress directed the National Park Foundation to tap and channel that energy. The Foundation has developed a network of Park-specific Funds that nurture local Park support and help citizens engage in a structured way to help their favorite Parks.

The Memorial, astride the sunken battleship in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, hosts more than 1.5 million visitors a year—far more than planners ever envisioned. Many World War II veterans are intensely dedicated to enhancing and expanding the visitor center and museum, and the Fund was created to assist in that endeavor.

crater lake national parks trust

Sixteen private citizens have been appointed as Trustees of a new fund supporting Biscayne, Everglades and Dry Tortugas National Parks. The South Florida National Parks Trust was created to raise friends and funds to help these National Parks conserve unique ecosystems and cultural resources; provide visitors the opportunity to experience these ecosystems; advocate responsible stewardship and community sustainability; and educate future generations of community leaders about the value of these treasures. The new organization has been fortunate to have received almost $2 million in start-up funding, part from federal environmental mitigation settlements and part from private philanthropy. The private citizens appointed to lead the South Florida National Parks Trust represent the diverse cultures of South Florida and have set a goal to better engage local communities in experiencing these National Parks. The Trustees provide fiduciary and governance oversight to the Trust and are now developing its strategic initiatives and increasing its fundraising capacity.

The newest fund of the National Park Foundation has been launched through the generosity of six Oregonians who made substantial contributions to help Crater Lake National Park celebrate its centennial in 2002. As one of America’s National Parks, Crater Lake is a crown jewel of Oregon and a centerpiece for education and outreach throughout the state. Using the centennial celebration as a springboard, these donors are developing a long-term vision in collaboration with National Park staff that will encourage private philanthropy to support a new Science and Learning Center, provide for research and scholastic endowments, and help rehabilitate historic structures in the Park’s Rim Village. The initial trustee group is extending opportunities to others to be nominated as Trustees of the new fund.

These companies, through donations of dollars, goods and services, have committed nearly $90 million over three years to parlay their resources and strengths for the betterment of the Parks and America. To date, the Proud Partner program has benefited well over half of the nearly 400 National Parks, and has helped more than 200 million people strengthen or discover a connection to their National Parks.

message from the grants and programs committee chair I am very proud when I think about the impact the National Park Foundation is making with our philanthropy. This year NPF made grants totaling $31.2 million to National Parks across the country, $23.2 million of which was contributed property, goods, and services. Experience has taught us that even a small grant in the hands of an innovative Park Ranger can make a huge difference, enhancing the Park experience in a variety of ways.

This year we have funded a wide variety of programs and projects, large and small. All National Park Foundation grants are designed to enhance the Park experience, promoting discovery, pride, recreation and renewal— from the re-lighting of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial; to an education program at Maggie Walker National Historic Site that enhances literacy and helps children learn about African American history though historic documents; to the Kodak Imaging Product Donation Program that

provided cameras and other equipment to over one-third of the National Parks in America; the Volunteer Senior Ranger Corps that recruits and trains seniors to work with youth on resource conservation projects at twelve Parks across the country; and so many more.

As we bring this year to a close, we are looking forward with anticipation to our new grant program planning process designed in collaboration with the National Park Service to focus our grant making more fully on strengthening the enduring connection between the American people and their National Parks. More on this next year…

contributions The National Park Foundation is both a grant-making and a fund-raising organization, in both capacities focused on engaging the public more fully in our National Parks. I have had the pleasure of leading our development efforts for the past four years as the Chair of the Development Committee of the Board. Over this past year, we have taken National Park philanthropy in a whole new direction, building on a track record of innovative corporate partnerships while beginning to reach out to individuals for their support—through events, education materials, and on-line giving at www.nationalparks.org. (There is even an opportunity to give included in this Annual Report!)

Through the generosity of our Proud Partners of America’s National Parks, we have delivered new visitor films, new photographic equipment, electric vehicles and more to hundreds of National Parks—capped by the renovation of the famous Red Buses of Glacier National Park. By tapping into the media

and customer-relations expertise we have reached millions of individuals with information about their National Parks through special magazine inserts and mailings.

Through the generous support of our wonderful partners and donors we are able meet critical needs in new and innovative ways, ranging from environmentally sensitive lighting for the Jefferson Memorial to the firstever bilingual education facility at Rock Creek Park to support for the upcoming Centennial of Flight at the Wright Brothers National Memorial.

I would like to thank all of our contributors listed here in this report, whose support is making a real difference in the National Parks and benefiting millions of Americans.

donor profile A National Park fan virtually his entire life—and an avid backcountry hiker— Jack Rader has learned a few things about nature. While he revels in the primal beauty and isolation of the wilderness, he has a healthy respect for it, too. “Getting on some trails, away from people—that’s where the real attractions are. But,” he cautions, “you have to be aware of the hazards that come along with being in the wilderness—rock falls, wildlife, sudden weather changes, and so forth. It’s spectacularly beautiful, but you don’t want to treat the wilderness trivially.”

Rader, whose hiking partner is his wife Mary, considers his favorite National Parks to be Great Smoky Mountains, Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Everglades. He recently made a gift to the National Park Foundation to support the Parks he values so much. “By supporting the National Park Foundation,” he notes, “people can help strengthen the connection to National Parks for themselves, their families, and future generations.”

Financials Despite a challenging economic environment, the National Park Foundation’s financial performance for fiscal year 2002 remained strong and our support for the nation’s National Parks continued to grow.

message from the finance and audit committee chair On behalf of the National Park Foundation and its governing board, I am pleased to present the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2002. The Foundation’s board sets high standards for secure and prudent investment, good returns, and sparing use of funds for administrative and fund-raising costs. I believe that the Foundation has met these goals in the past year.

As the figures and graphs illustrate, the Foundation places a premium on making grants to National Parks from contributions raised in the most cost-effective manner. For every dollar we expended (see the Use of Funds chart on the facing page), 89.4 cents supported National Parks through grants and other direct support, and only 10.6 cents covered the Foundation’s administration and fundraising.

We deeply appreciate your support and generosity, and we commit to you and to all our supporters to deliver the maximum benefit to America’s National Parks consistent with the careful management of all funds and programs.

the investment and disbursement of funds in concert with Parks and their non-profit partner organizations and as investment manager for funds solely controlled by Parks and other Park-related entities, utilizing in some instances a variety of commingled investment funds exempt from registration as mutual funds under authority of the Philanthropy Act of 1995. The net assets of restricted and endowment funds grew 7.1% from $41.5 million in FY2001 to $44.3 million in FY2002. Grants to NPS and the Parks increased from $23.9 million in FY2001 to $31.2 million in FY2002, an increase of 30.8% due to the increased activities of our Proud Partner program. In addition, the funds managed as an agent for other entities — funds invested by the Foundation but with expenditures controlled solely by another entity — grew slightly, with assets of approximately $15.7 million in FY2002 compared to $15.3 million the previous year.

revenue. Contributions to the Foundation increased 44.1%, from $28.5 million in FY2001 to $41.1 million in FY2002. Total revenue increased 19.4%, from $37.8 million in FY2001 to $45.1 million in FY2002. The increase in revenue is due primarily to the revenue generated from the Proud Partner program that includes over $23 million in contributed property, goods and services. Unrestricted revenue is used to support the Foundation’s unique projects undertaken at the request of the National Park Service, its discretionary grants to National Parks, and to support the operations of the foundation. Restricted revenue is used primarily to benefit specific Parks or projects through grants.

expenses and grants. The Foundation expended $44.4 million in FY2002. Grants to the National Parks and program related expenditures accounted for 89.4% of that spending. Total program expenses for the Foundation increased from $32.1 million in FY2001 to $39.7 million in FY2002.

In addition to cash disbursements, grants include media, advertising and promotional services, visitor center films, PSA’s and other Park-related broadcast programs. In addition, $5.5 million of funds managed as an agent for other entities were disbursed to benefit the National Park System in FY2002.

assets and liabilities. Total assets were $83.3 million on June 30, 2002, compared to $79.5 million a year earlier including funds managed as an agent for other entities. Total net assets increased slightly from $58.1 million to $58.7 million. This increase in net assets continues to provide the Foundation with resources to meet the current and future needs of the National Parks.

The information shown herein has been summarized by the National Park Foundation from its fiscal year 2002 audit report. The FY2001 audited financial statements were produced by Arthur Andersen. The FY2002 audited financial statements were produced by Ernst and Young. Some but not all of the professional staff engaged in the FY2001 audit were also engaged in the FY2002 audit. To obtain a copy of the Foundation's complete audited financial statements, write to: Director of Finance, National Park Foundation, 11 Dupont Circle, NW, Sixth Floor, Washington, DC 20036.

putting community service payments to work for national parks In FY2002, Fleet Shipping Lines agreed to make a community service payment of $150,000 to the National Park Foundation to settle environmental litigation. The money is to be used for the benefit of environmental projects at Golden Gate National Recreation Area, Point Reyes National Seashore, and the National Marine Sanctuary, Gulf of Farallones.

Carnival Corporation made a similar community service payment to the National Park Foundation in FY2002 in the amount of $1,500,000. These funds have been designated to establish the South Florida National Parks Trust to benefit Everglades, Biscayne, and Dry Tortugas National Parks.
